Chapter 452: Winning People's Hearts



It was already a quarter of an hour later when he finished washing up. He used his inner strength to dry his hair, changed into clothes that were convenient for him to move in, put on a cloak, and then opened the door and walked out.

Pei Yu was standing at the door. When he heard the door open, he turned around and saw the cloak on Chen Li. A smile flashed across his eyes.

"Let's go eat first."

Chen Li hesitated for two seconds and then nodded. She had originally wanted to eat lobster at noon, but now it seems that she should eat it in the evening.

The lunch was not all seafood. Pei Yu asked someone to go to the nearest town to buy some pork. Mutton and beef were hard to come by, so they had to go to the nearest county town to buy them.

As soon as Shen Jingyuan saw Shen Li, he wanted to speak, but when he saw Pei Yu with a sullen face, he thought about it and didn't say anything.

After finishing his meal, Shen Jingyuan winked at his sister and went about his business.

Seeing Pei Yu's expression softened a lot, Chen Li took his hand and said, "Ayu, you have been wearing a stern face. Is there something bothering you?"

Pei Yu: ...

"Tell me about it, and let me hear it. We can solve it together."

Pei Yu: Well, that’s a good way to put the blame on someone else.

Holding his hand, she assured him, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. This won't happen again."

Anyway, there is already a lot of seafood in her space, enough to last for a while.

I'll take some time to go to the beach in a few days, use my mental power to enter the sea and collect some more.

Pei Yu emphasized one word, "Fake."

Chen Li: ...

As the saying goes, don't lie to people who know you well!

The smile on his face froze for a moment, then he looked at Pei Yu with dissatisfaction, and before Chen Li could say anything, he spoke.

"Well, I believe Ali is a sensible person and it won't happen again."

Chen Li smiled and said, "It's true that I have some sense, but I still want to go to the beach to pick up seafood. Don't worry, I will pick it up on the beach and will definitely not run around."

"real?"

"Yeah, I've had enough of it this time."

Pei Yu held her hand, which was no longer as cold as it was in the morning, but now warm and soft.

"I'm a little busy these two days. If you want to play, go out and play by yourself, but don't catch a cold, not like you did this morning."

"Otherwise, you can just come with me to the meeting."

After saying this, he felt that his suggestion was good and nodded affirmatively.

"Then you should come with me. I can give you some suggestions."

Chen Li shook her head and refused, "No, I don't like to hear you talk about that, and I don't understand anything about naval warfare. I'm going to go to the nearby mountains and hunt to improve my food."

Seeing her resolute attitude, Pei Yu could only nod and agree, and did not forget to remind her: "I heard from General Yang that the nearby mountains are a bit steep, you should be careful."

"I see. Someone's looking for you outside. Go and get busy."

There was a young soldier standing outside, who was obviously looking for Pei Yu. When he saw the two of them talking and was hesitating whether to come in, he was spotted by Chen Li.

"Your Majesty, our general wants to see you. The things you asked him to prepare are ready and placed in the meeting room."

Pei Yu stood up and walked out, and the young soldier followed him to the conference room.

Just as Chen Li was thinking about clearing the dishes from the table, Tian Qing walked in quickly from outside with a tray.

"County Lady, please sit still and let me come down."

"I'm going to go for a walk in the nearby mountains. Just tell your master this if he asks."

Tian Qing nodded. "County Master, you are unfamiliar with the place. Do you want someone to take you there?"

"No, I'll go alone."

Chen Li left the village and went straight to the mountain behind. However, because the people living nearby were all soldiers, there was no prey to be found when he first went up the mountain.

Listening to the direction of the waves, Chen Li headed towards that direction and soon arrived at the edge of a cliff using his lightness skills.

The sound of waves hitting the rock wall continued to come from below. Chen Li looked down and saw that the cliff was at least two hundred meters high.

I just took a look at my footsteps and took a step back. Well, I really felt a little uncomfortable when I saw it.

Not forgetting the purpose of coming here, Pei Yu's people are estimated to arrive one after another in the next two days. Moreover, the weather has been good recently, so it won't be long before they go out to sea.

Although seafood is delicious, he doesn't want to eat it all the time. The voyage will take some time, so it's better to hunt some prey.

However, there are very few prey on this mountain, which shows that it is often visited by General Yang's men.

Chen Li had no choice but to go inside, otherwise it would be a bit unreasonable to take out the prey.

The further we walked inside, the colder it felt, and the more prey there were. We even saw quite a few wild goats.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a pot of delicious mutton soup in this season? Chen Li did not kill the sheep, but chose to drive more than a dozen sheep down the mountain.

As for how she drove them away, it was of course using her mental power, otherwise she wouldn't have the ability to talk to animals.

Furthermore, even if we can communicate with animals, can we still make them die obediently?

Chen Limo drove about fifteen sheep. When he was about to go down the mountain, he took out a wild boar weighing about four hundred pounds from the space, killed it with one punch, and then tied a vine around its neck and pulled it down the mountain.

He also pulled a few vines nearby, put them around the goats' necks one by one, and then led them down the mountain.

"Look, what is that?"

"Why are there so many sheep?"

"Hey, why is that girl pulling a pig behind her?"

"Hey, that girl looks familiar. It seems like she just came to the military camp yesterday?"

Another soldier slapped his hand and said, "Don't point fingers! That's the Princess of Hui'an County, and she's also the fiancée of Prince Jingnan!"

"Oh my god, I never thought that this delicate and weak county lady actually has such a great skill. Look at those dozen sheep, we can't do anything with them."

"That's right. Hui'an County has no real talent. How could the prince take a fancy to him?"

Naturally, Chen Li heard all of their conversations and was sure that the little soldier at the end must be a die-hard fan of Pei Yu.

Tianqing had just finished the work at hand and walked in from outside. From a distance, he saw Chen Li pulling a dozen sheep towards him.

The county lord went hunting, but didn’t she hunt a little too much?

"County Lady, let me hold the reins for you."

"Well, keep one of these sheep for roasting whole, and make the rest into mutton soup and share it with all the soldiers."

There are only 10,000 soldiers stationed here. One wild boar and fifteen sheep are a bit too little, and each person may not get much meat. But in this cold winter, isn’t it nice to have a bowl of warm mutton soup?

This soup is not eaten for free, it also has the effect of winning people's hearts.

Someone had already informed Pei Yu and General Yang about the commotion here. Pei Yu shook his head and laughed after hearing it. Ah Li must be trying to win people's hearts for her.
